The word ‘hometown’ has special meanings and is of great beauty in people’s heart.

To me, my hometown Shaoxing is a place with extraordinary beauty.

When I think of her, I will feel peaceful and relaxed.

What my hometown makes me proud of is that her beauty if from the inside out.

Its beauty is decorous, profound rather than aggressive.

Shaoxing's environment grants unique character to its inhabitants.

No matter how long I’ve been away from home,

I will always have the look and emotions of a Shaoxing daughter.

每个人心里的家乡都是非常美的。

只要你想到她，

或者你闻到她的味道，

你就会觉得

很安静，很熟悉，很放松。

让我骄傲的是，

我的家乡，她的美是由内而外的。

它的美非常厚重，

不张扬，但是很深邃。

一方水土养育一方人，

不管我离开家乡有多久，

我永远都是绍兴女儿的样子与情怀。
